seriously though. as soon as i saw the words 'jean nouvel' i knew to be disappointed, but this exceeds everything awful i could have predicted. or maybe i'm just grumpy today. ick.i especially like : "remind of classic british icons, such as the phone box or the London buses, while contrasting with the green of the park". wow. smart. (yeah, seriously grumpy. i can only hope to get my fix in venice)

this was relatively recently; not this wednesday just passed but the one before that.

wilton's.

pete!

the birds at the barbican! you weren't meant to take photos but i couldn't pass up this opportunity. the exhibition/installation was a room set up with amplified guitars, basses and cymbals full of these nesting zebra finches. my feet were covered in them at one point. we figured it was the coffee grounds they were after.
